The Sad Truth

Well, my internship at Comedy Central is nearly complete. April 29th will be my last day. Then, I'll be flying back home on the 30th. What's more heartbreaking — for you, that is; not so much for me — is that this particular blog will need to end soon. I'll probably keep on blogging, but it won't be under "I'm A New York Intern." I'm inspired by the great blog Things I Hate About My Flatmate and ending the ride appropriately. I'll think of something. However, blogging about being an intern in New York when I'm no longer an intern in New York would be shameless. And though I am completely shameless, I'm also very, very tired.

There's a lot in New York I haven't been able to write about, but that won't stop me from trying to cram it all in in a half-assed way before I go home. I promise to make it a fitting end. And then I expect you all to follow me like zombies to wherever I happen to go next.

And now, for no reason whatsoever, here's the Voltron animation...


(click on me... I'll bring you Voltron.)

I wouldn't expect "I'm a guy in Wisconsin" to have the same appeal, yet I imagine you'll have no trouble pulling it off.

c'mon andy! The great blogger you are I'm sure you'll think of something in Wisconsin too. Hell, I don't care if you dont write about New York. Just write about all those stupid stuff like Voltrons for all I care. Let me know about your next blog!

The thought of an Andy-free world is just too awful to bear. Yet I wish you well. Have not one snarky comment to make...

Uber-sad that your intern days are over. But hey, I live in illinois and I have frequented Wisconsin so I know you will have endless blog fodder. New York was the place, but Andy was the funny. read you around.

Andy,

I wish you would relocate to Mars.

You'd make a perfect intergalactic guide.

Which brings me to the point that I would rather be called a cosmonaut than an astronaut. I mean "cosmo" versus "ass"? Is a choice necessary?

Anyhow. Thanks for giving me a link when you had three weeks left of life in the blog. That's cool. (Ahah. Just glad I made it on, dude.) And I hope you continue visiting after you leave this bed of HTML frenzy.

You rock, intern. But I'm still waiting to hear about that time you blew that guy in that round-ish office thing. I was looking forward to you describing the dimples the rug made in your knees.

Love,
Steff

Oh, and the dude that said The Daily Show needs Intern Andy?

No disrespect to you, Andy, 'cos you do rock. But, dude, what? Needs?

The show's the tightest, coolest show on late-night. It's spawning a whole new kind of infotainment that might, just might, finally catch on and do the fuck away with trash like "Inside Edition".

Andy might just get to cut his teeth at a place like that. And when he does, he'll know how lucky he is. The place will be an institution in the years to come. Don't underestimate it just 'cos it's "now" and "hip." The show's gonna stay long time.

Just my two cents.

You still rock, Andy. I'm just laying it out like it is.

Ok u will not be an intern anymore.
Just rename this blog to
"I WAS an intern in New York". Duh!!!!
Or
"I USED TO BE an intern in New York"
Or
"I HAPPENED TO BE an intern in New York"
Whatever!!
Just keep blogging and tell me where to go.

NOOOOOOO!!! comedy central must offer you a job. if you can't get a job there, then there's no hope for the rest of us, is there?

i will find it very sad when this blog ends. it has been my source of amusement for a time.

i will cry for days.

see? my eyes are already watering.
stupid contact lens.

I love your blog and I hate blogs. You're the reason my boss catches me chortling in my cube everyday. And you're much funnier than that Flatmate guy.

Good Luck in 'sconie. I hope you keep writing somewhere out here in virtual time wasting world. Work would just not be the same.

Now, since I moved to Minnesota 7 years ago I've met my fair share of Badger state natives and I have come to realize that there is plenty to joke and/or make fun of out here.

I'm sure you will find something.

Your blogs were great and funny as hell. Best of luck to ya, I'm sure you'll find something. You seem pretty talented. I have another 15 days left on my internship.

T-15 and counting.

I'll miss you intern, but maybe you could come back as a pirate.

I hear they have a lot of good cheese in Wisconsin. Ooh, ooh! I know! You could write about all the triumphs and trials of cheese and cheese-making. We could follow the quirky antics of those fun-loving cheesemakers, and get involved in the daily drama of curds and whey, cultures and enzymes and cows and such things. How glorious!

Ahem. Of course you don't have to go with my humble suggestion. I'm sure whatever you choose to do will be fine.

Great blog man. Sorry to see it coming to an end, but I'm looking forward to your resurrection on a new blog.

 
At 7:36 PM, Blogger Andy said...

So... I guess now that you're not an Intern, you'll want your name back? :/

I can be Inane Andy, and you can be just The Andy.

Nice work on this blog. Cheers.

You are (were) the second most popular intern ever. The first is a certain Monica who worked in a big house in Washington and got her dress stained.

Well, your internship ends on the same day that the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy begins. Go watch it. It will cheer you up. Or not.

Oh no! could kindly pls juz continue on bloggin??? my exams juz drivin me nuts, n ur blogs keep me sane. Thx for it

I'm a big believer in the "quit while you're ahead". 'Course, that implies that you got ahead, but you certainly did. Very brave to give up the fame and fortune, but the amazing thing is that you really will have all these zombies following you around. Make your own fame and fortune! Best of luck for the future and I'll just have to keep enjoying while I can.

I can't do it, I just can't do it....please don't stop. I know that it means nothing to you that I will have a meaningless life without your blog. But please for the little people, don't do this to us. Oh my God what am I going to do????? It just can't be. Lordy, Lordy I won't make it. Please have mercy

I had a lot of friends that used to work at Comedy. I've worked at almost every entertainment company but that one myself:)
